I have just finished reading this book. It is the autobiography of Dr. Jacob Gartenhaus. I very much enjoyed the book and thank Pastor Gary Ledford for giving me my copy of the book! I love the way the book explains how an orthodox Jew came to know Jesus Christ as His Lord and Messiah. [...]

The subtitle is Your Secret to Success! My greatest fear of a book like this is that coming from a Christian publisher it is or can be very misleading. The book has good business, personal, self improvement points no doubt. Thomas Nelson publishes it so you might think that it was coming from a Christian [...]

I just read “Billy” an inspiring story of the life of Billy Graham that really glorifies God. Charles Templeton tells the story. He was one of the “greatest preacher” of his time.
